You will build and maintain the manufacturing bill of materials (MBOM), establish supplier relationships, and ensure that realized and projected costs are clear, traceable, and actionable. A critical near-term priority is developing a contract manufacturing partnership in 2026 to support Anode’s path to high-volume manufacturing. As our organization scales, you will shape sourcing strategies, supplier relationships, and manufacturing partnerships—laying the groundwork for a supply chain that can grow with the company.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategic Sourcing & Risk Mitigation: Navigate evolving tariffs, supply disruptions, and regional manufacturing dynamics. Identify alternate sources, evaluate total cost of ownership, and develop long-term sourcing strategies that balance cost competitiveness with supply chain resilience.
• Procurement Execution: Own day-to-day purchasing activities across mechanical, electrical, and system components—driving competitive quotes, placing orders, and ensuring timely delivery to support rapid hardware iteration and prototype builds.
• Operational Foundation: Establish scalable supply chain processes, documentation practices, and cost-modeling frameworks that will support the transition to serialized production—creating systems and standards that can mature with the company.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with engineering, manufacturing, and operations teams to translate design requirements into sourcing strategies, manage component lead times, and resolve supply-related technical or schedule challenges.

Qualifications

Must Have:

• 7+ years of experience in supply chain, sourcing, or procurement roles within hardware or manufacturing environments

• Experience with cost tracking, BOM maintenance, and supplier negotiations for electromechanical systems
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, specifications, and bills of materials; comfortable engaging directly with engineers to clarify requirements
• Strong organizational, communication, and project management skills in fast-paced, early-stage environments

Preferred:

• Experience evaluating, selecting, and onboarding contract manufacturers for electromechanical or energy systems
• Background in energy storage, electric vehicles, heavy equipment, or other electrified hardware systems
